A dam (1) for shielding against water, said dam comprising at least one elongate section (10), each section comprising a section bottom (2), a section top (3) and two longitudinal side faces (4) and two end faces (5) together defining a volume (6), said at least one section (10) comprising one or more openings (11, 12) configured for filling and emptying of liquid to the volume (6), said at least one end face (5) comprising a collar (7) extending in the width along the periphery of the end face in extension of the bottom section and the two longitudinal side faces.
Claims9
A dam (1) for the shielding of water, the dam comprising at least one elongate section (10), each section comprising a section bottom (2), a section top (3) and two longitudinal side faces (4) and two end faces (5) together defining a volume (6), the at least one section (10) comprising one or more openings (11, 12) configured for filling and emptying of liquid to the volume (6), characterized in that one end face (5) comprises a collar (7) extending in the width along the periphery of the end face in extension of the bottom section and the two longitudinal side faces, and further characterized in that the length of the section bottom (2) in the other end face (5) of the section extends beyond the length of the section top (3), whereby the end face (5) is inclined, this being achieved by the section bottom (2) having a length, beyond the length of the section top (3), corresponding to between 5% and 50% of the height between the section bottom (2) and the section top (3).
A dam according to one or more of the preceding claims, where the collar (7) extends at a length of 1 m from the end face (5).
Two adjoining dam sections, where each section comprises a dam (1) for the shielding of water, the dams each comprising at least one elongate section (10), each section comprising a section bottom (2), a section top (3) and two longitudinal side faces (4) and two end faces (5) together defining a volume (6), the at least one section (10) comprising one or more openings (11, 12) configured for filling and emptying of liquid to the volume (6), characterized in that the at least one end face (5) at a junction of the two adjoining dam sections comprises a collar (7) extending in the width along the periphery of the end face in extension of the bottom section thereof and the two longitudinal side faces, and further characterized in that the end face (5) of the other dam section at the junction of the two adjoining dam sections has a length of the section bottom (2) which extends beyond the length of the section top (3) whereby this end face (5) is inclined.
